They have nearly succeeded in claiming both realities.

Arion is the medieval world of nature; Tirit is the world of science and robot soldiers.

Gameplay

Split Realities played in the vein of Flashback.
You can solve puzzles by switching between worlds to move objects.

JVC's gaming division closed up shop in 1998.

Some ex-devs took the idea to Funcom and from there it became the hit PC game The Longest Journey.
